Basics
Section
By creating Control Sets, you can change sounds
in a variety of ways.
For example, set the Src (Source) parameter of
Control Set 1 to MW (Modulation Wheel) and
the Dest (Destination) parameter to ELFO-PM
(Element LFO Pitch Modulation Depth). Then
set the Src parameter of Control Set 2 also to
MW, but set the Dest parameter to ELM PAN
(Element Pan). You will also need to specify the
Element to be controlled and also the depth
(amount) of control.
In this example, when you move the Modulation
Wheel upward, the amount of Pitch Modulation
increases accordingly, the Element is panned
from left to right. So in other words, you can
assign several Dest parameters to each Src
controller.
Continuing from the example above, now create
another Control Set where Src is set to FC (Foot
Controller) and Dest is set to ELFO-PM
(Element LFO Pitch Modulation Depth). Again,
specify the Element to be controlled and also the
depth of control.
Now, Pitch Modulation is assigned to both the
Modulation Wheel and Foot Controller. In other
words, you can also assign several Src controllers
to each Dest parameter.
By assigning all six Control Sets, you will have a
stunning degree of real-time control over the
synthesizer’s sounds.

Aftertouch
Aftertouch lets you, for example, add vibrato to a
sound by applying further pressure to a note on
the keyboard while it is being held down. This
allows real-time expression and control.
Aftertouch can be used to control a wide variety
of parameters (Page 69).
Control Sets
Aside from their default parameters, keyboard
aftertouch, the controllers and some of the knobs
on the front panel can be assigned with various
parameters, as explained on Page 38.
For example, you could assign Resonance to the
Modulation Wheel and set aftertouch to apply
vibrato. You are free to assign parameters to suit
the kind of sound being played.
These controller assignments are known as
Control Sets. As the following illustration shows,
you can assign up to six different Control Sets per
Voice. Within each Control Set, the controller is
known as the Source (Src) and the parameter
controlled by the Source is known as the
Destination (Dest).
There are various Dest parameters available; some
will apply to the Voice as a whole, while some will
be specific to each of its Elements. Details are
given in the Controls List of the separate Data
List.
Details about the available Dest parameter settings
are given in the Destination Parameter List of the
separate Data List.
The Element Switches (Page 70) will be disabled if
the Dest parameter setting is not specific for
Elements (i.e., for settings 00 to 33).
